Bird & Magnolia Silk Painting, Framed

A small russet-brown bird sits on a branch among creamy white blossoms and soft teal leaves, painted in gentle tones on pale silk. A line of calligraphy sits at the top corner, giving the scene a quiet, scholarly feel. It’s framed in gold with a Greek key edge, and it looks lovely in a hallway, over a bed or on a chinoiserie-style gallery wall.

How It Came to Us
This piece was hanging behind a coutner in a charity shop, totally overlooked and needing a new home

Care & Display
Silk is delicate, so hang it away from direct sunlight, damp and heat to protect the colours. Dust the frame with a soft cloth, and never spray the glass. A barely damp cloth is all it needs. It pairs beautifully with brass, blue and white china and warm wood.

Shipping: Royal Mail 48 (2–3 working days), with the glass taped and the frame padded.
